    All good things to hear.  ;D As for the transparent proxy, someone would just need to add some kind of file system management package to let you mount external drives. You can already specify the cache directory for squid. Though you must also keep in mind that the act of being a caching server does require a bit of CPU, so the embedded unit may not be up to the task of this role in that way as well. A feature like that (file system management) might be a good candidate for a bounty.

    Use Traffic Shaper. You can monitor and assign maximum download and upload speed of each user. Install squidguard. You can filter website you dont want to be available in your network. Blocked sites.

    Go to http://support.toshiba.com/ and click download.  Put in your model and look for drivers for Windows Vista or 7 (Vista drivers generally work with 7).

    You'd have to copy them off a FreeBSD machine (or ISO, perhaps) that uses the same FreeBSD version that your version of pfSense has. I don't think there is a binary package for them anywhere, as they are part of the FreeBSD base system.

    Since the LBAs are different and don't repeat, it's more likely either a DMA bug, a controller issue, or a flaky SATA cable. Can't rule out a flaky drive, but you can always pkg_add -r smartmontools and then run smartctl -a /dev/ad6 It can also run drive tests, it should print out a list of options if you just run 'smartctl'.

    Download via the GUI under: "backup/restore" the config.xml. Everything is stored in this file. You can manually add your own mappings to this file and restore it. If you cannot find the right place in the file or dont know how to format it, add a dummy entry first and look for this.

    if you're pxebooting then you have to be pulling your OS from somewhere. So let's say you set up your thin client as a thin client and pxeboot it. Where is all them bytes you just moved off your hard drive?

    I just released the first release candidate…I also added native WMI checking(no wmi repeater/server like most others), so you can check the status of specific services on windows machines, along with available memory and hard disk space. Even though this is the first version, it is very stable, I have been using it at several different sites for over 4 months now with no problems.  Give it a try(even just use it as a live cd or in vmware player) and let me know what you think.

    Thanks Jim.  I have not had a need to use IRC before, so this was a learning process.  Two things that got me: My VPN connection to the office blocks IRC ports I did not know the username/password for IRC was just "made up" information.  I thought I had to register it somewhere…
